    All these ******ed old traditions need to stop asap. This country can't live in the past forever, this bloody wedding is already constantly being talked about, I'd rather cut all their heads off and have Buckingham Palace as a theme park.

    I'm not sure whose death I'm most looking forward to. The Queen's or Thatcher's.

    Even better if they both dropped dead on the same day <ok>

    I think Thatcher died years ago and they're just using her corpse as a puppet to keep the tory faithful believing.

    Can't see the queen dieing anytime soon, her Mum lasted for years and see was a smoking, gambling alchoholic. Old Liz will be around for years to come, just to make sure her ****** son doesn't get the throne.

    My moneys on a series of bizarre , fatal royal "accidents" ( car crashes , autoasphyxiation, shooting trips gone wrong etc ) leaving Harry - The Half Blood Prince - to take the throne ; and that wee ginger is just mad enough to marry a catholic , which would be pretty funny.

    That's if Harry lasts long enough, he's an autoerotic asphyxiation accident waiting to happen

    I suggest it probably cost more to get them all to London and back than they got out of it.

    I wasn't talking about the recipients, lots of people do good things and don't get rewarded for them, I was talking about all the ceremonial bullshit, but you'd have to be able to read to understand that...

    I can read I just can't see why anyone would have a problem with it. If they don't want their gift and day out, they can refuse.

    The Queen has celebrated her 85th birthday by handing out Maundy money in a traditional royal service at Westminster Abbey.

    The monarch handed out specially minted coins to deserving recipients in a ceremony dating from the Middle Ages

    Each year the the Queen chooses a different church to distribute the coins - Maundy money.

    Usually the recipients of the symbolic alms - one for each year of the monarch's life - are drawn from the same diocese as the cathedral the Queen visits.

    The Queen has two birthdays - the actual one and the official one in June, which is celebrated with the Trooping the Colour parade.


    These are my problems with it...

    I see, you have an irrational hatred of octagenarians, the Middle Ages, churches, alms and the word "colour".

    Police have found further evidence linking Loyalists to the attempted attack on Neil Lennon and 2 other Celtic fans.

    A small picture of The Queen has been discovered on all 3 packages...
